I’m currently a senior in hs and I plan on applying to the following UCs: UCI, UCSD, UCB, UCSC, UCSB, UCLA, & UCD. I’m currently very concerned if I’ll even have a considerable chance of getting accepted at one of these UCs because my test scores are relatively low. I procrastinated my standized tests and I’ve only taken the SAT once and got a 1190:(… I’m debating if I want to have a tutor before the November SAT because I need to at least score a 1300-1350.
As for my GPA:
9th grade: I didn’t do so well during my freshmen year because I didn’t take my classes seriously. I didnt take any advanced courses during the 9th grade & ended up with a 3.75 unweighted/weighted GPA.
10th grade: my GPA was a 4.43 weighted and a 4.0 unweighted.
11th grade: my GPA was a 4.5 weighted and a 3.8 unweighted (got a B in one of my classes)
12th grade(now): I currently have all A’s for the quarter but I don’t know for certain what my GPA will be. I’m currently taking 4 AP classes, 1 honors, and one regular class (religion class)
Cumulative GPA :
Weighted: 4.3
Unweighted: 3.9
Capped: 4.45
As for EC’s: I’m mainly involved with mock trial, student tutoring, and key club. I participated in other ECs, but I wasn’t too involved with them.
Thank you to everyone who read and responded to this! Really means a lot;)
